[QUOTE="DoubleK, post: 824083, member: 3645"] Dun, I just bought a 5101E a week ago and its about the same as the 5093E. So far, I like it a lot. I traded in my 6403 that was 5 years old. It is the same cab as my old one but the 4WD is going to be awesome and, the shuttle shift is great. You don't even have to clutch to use the shuttle. I did add the option for the air ride seat because of the short wheel base. It was $611 more but well worth it in comfort. The differences that made this trade so attractive is that my old one did not have 4WD, it did not have a shuttle shift, and it only had 9 Forward and 3 Reverse gears. I traded for $18,000 and I figure that each of these 3 upgrades are worth $6,000 each plus, my front end was worn out after 1400 hours from moving big heavy bales and I needed to replace the spindles. This shouldn't be a problem with the 4WD heavy front end. The new one also has what they call an econo pto mode that will allow 540 rpm's at the shaft with much lower engine rpms that should save on fuel for light weight pto tasks like brush cutting. All in all I'm very happy with this purchase. Dub [/QUOTE]
